Omron to showcase smart sensors at UK Construction Week
Atnext month’s Construction Week conference at NEC Birmingham on 10th-12th October,Omron Electronic Components is to demonstrate a new range of IoT ready sensors for smart buildings.
Sensors for the IoT age
Cliff Ortmeyer, Global Head of Solutions Development and Technical Marketing, Farnell element14, highlights the importance of choosing the right sensor.
Climax leads to big buffer in the middle of the night
Steve Rogerson looks at some of the news that may have missed the front page.I gave a wide berth to one company’s stand at last month’s IoT Solutions World Congress in Barcelona. I decided I really didn’t want to find out what Climax Technology had to offer or even why they thought that would be a good name for a company.
Industrial robots offer preicise speed measurement as if by magic
No matter how hard we try humans cannot live up to the speed and precision of robots.No human can do it as quickly and as precisely. Modern robots can move workpieces around at a speed that you could once only dream of. Precise measuring instruments are needed to avoid mistakes occurring due to the incredibly quick cycle times required in modern production. For this, the manufacturer Omron Adept Technologies of Dortmund relies on systems made by ...
Barometric sensors for battery operated mobile devices
Two MEMS-based barometric pressure sensors from Omron Electronic Components Europe have been specifically designed to support height and pressure measurement in drones, smartphones, pedometers and other battery powered mobile systems. The Omron 2SMPB-02B and 2SMPB-02E sensors provide stable and reliable height and pressure measurements, allowing changes in elevation to be reliably recorded.
Multi-function environmental sensor supports the IoT
Omron Electronic Components Europe has announced a multi-function Environmental Sensor that quickly allows designers to monitor seven parameters from one easy to integrate module.Specifically designed for the growing number of autonomous IoT systems, the new Omron 2JCIE-BL01 Sensor measures temperature, humidity, light, UVI, barometric pressure, noise and acceleration.
Robotics provide precise speed measurement as if by magic
Robots outweigh humans when it comes to speed and precision. Modern robots can move workpieces around at a speed that you could once only dream of. Precise measuring instruments are needed to avoid mistakes occurring due to the incredibly quick cycle times required in modern production. For this, the manufacturer Omron Adept Technologies of Dortmund relies on systems made by Wachendorff Automation.
Sensor communication devices deliver data demand
The range of IO-Link compatible hardware and ancillaries at RS Components (RS) has been expanded, an initiative which has quadrupled its stock of the devices over the past six months. IO-Link, the first standardised IO technology (to IEC 61131-9) for communication with sensors and actuators, will play an important part in the growing creation and adoption of fully connected solutions based around Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things...
Accurate temperature measurement based on MEMS tech
Omron Electronic Components has extended its non-contact MEMS thermal sensor range with a new narrow-field version specifically designed to provide accurate non-contact measurements of an objects’ surface temperature for industrial control, medical and building automation systems. Omron is relaunching its full range of MEMS thermal sensors in Europe, including wider field versions ideal for detecting room occupancy and similar applications.
Environment sensor sends data directly to smartphone
Mouser Electronics is now stocking the 2JCIE-BL01 environment sensor from OMRON Electronic Components. Designed to detect the surrounding environment, the 2JCIE-BL01 is a compact, battery-operable environmental sensor with seven different sensing capabilities. Developers can use the 2JCIE-BL01 in applications such as home remote monitoring, building automation, outdoor weather monitoring, and factory environment monitoring.
